Jade and I decided to go to an island about 40 km from home. On a good day it should take about 50 min to an hour to get there. Today it took about two hours by bus. The traffic was really heavy. It's a long weekend and everybody is on the move. The west coast of Korea is one large mud flat, so we didn't do any swimming. We just hiked around the coast for a few hours and had a small shore lunch. The weather was really nice and clear, with a day time high of about 35. After resting in the shade we decided to head for home. We caught the bus at 6:30 and we didn't get home until 10:30. It took us four hours to do 40 km!!! Gee wiz!! That sure was a long trip. I don't think we'll be going there again on a long weekend. Jade said she's never leaving the apartment again. I can't blame her for that!! Tomorrow I'm heading to another island, but I'm taking a ferry this time. So there will be no traffic jams!!!

I can't imagine it taking so long to travel such a short distance! That's gotta suck! It looks like a nice place though. :)

I CAN imagine it taking so long to travel such a short distance, it DOES Suck. When I first moved to Ottawa it took me a 2 hour bus ride to travel what would be a 25 minute car ride to work. Hence buying the car!
